"not very nice, but necessary"

man ļoti patīk šis dialodziņš no "Broken Flowers":

"you have any, like,
philosophical tips or anything...

for a guy on a kind of road trip?

You asking me?

Yeah.

Well-

The past is gone.

I know that.

The future...

isn't here yet,

whatever it's going to be.

So,

all there is is-
is this.

The present.

That's it.

Are you a Buddhist?

No. Are you?

Uh, I'm not sure yet.

I'm sorry that's the best
I have to offer at the moment."
